ORTHOPEDICS

Dr.-Troop

J. KEITH TROOP, MD

Dr. Troop is an orthopedic surgeon practicing in the “The Surgeons Plaza”, however, surgery is only one of, and usually the last, treatment used to treat patients. Working with Physician Associate Cody Chambers, multiple modalities are used to relieve the pain of arthritis, tendinitis, bursitis, and nerve compression (like carpal tunnel syndrome). Treatment options include the entire spectrum from the most conservative (therapy, lifestyle changes) to medications, injections to surgery when appropriate. While Dr. Troop’s emphasis is joint replacement (hip, knee, shoulder) and sports injuries, he and Mr. Chambers also treat fractures, carpal tunnel syndrome, and “over-use” injuries. Biologics (using healing factors from your own body) are another option used for treating these problems. We are committed to providing the most advanced, proven treatment options.
